Will a Baby Seat Fit in a 2015 Chevy Colorado? (w/ Video)

We’re pretty excited about GM’s upcoming 2015 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon twins- and, judging from the fact that posts about the new GM mid-sizers are usually among our most popular, so are you! Like many of you, I think, I’m particularly drawn to the smaller extended-cab version of the new trucks, which will only be offered in either extended or 4-door “crew cab” configurations. I’d been under the impression that I couldn’t fit a child seat in the back of an extended-cab Colorado, though, so- for the associated cost reasons- it had been removed from my ever-shortening list of potential new car options.

That was yesterday. Today, it’s back on.

Thanks to some clever packaging details worked in by GM’s world-class designers, the 2015 Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon extended-cab twins can, indeed, swallow a full-size child seat. Don’t take my word for it, though- check out this 3d animation GM released a few days ago to see how it all works, then let us know if you’ve got GM’s new diesel-powered trucklets on your shopping lists in the comments section at the bottom of the page.
